| Han Solo is a fictional character in the Star Wars universe. He was played by Harrison Ford in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, and Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.
Solo plays a major role in the Star Wars saga, moving from a reluctant, selfish participant in the fight against the evil Galactic Empire to a central figure over the course of the first three released Star Wars films (A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi.) Star Wars creator George Lucas describes him as "a loner who realizes the importance of being part of a group and helping for the common good". In his youth (described in the Expanded Universe novel The Paradise Snare) Solo was a beggar in the streets of Corellia. He was discovered by Garris Shrike, captain of the Trader's Luck. Seduced by promises of a better life, Solo followed the man to his space ship, a relic of the Clone Wars. Unbeknown to the young Corellian, the Trader's Luck was little more than a slave ship, where the rule was "Everyone works." After spending most of his childhood pickpocketing and scamming at the whim of the abusive Shrike, Han came under the care of Dewlanna, a widowed Wookiee "indebted" to the ruthless captain. At some point in his youth he was in a swoop race with Dengar, who was severely injured during the course of the race. Dengar sought revenge on Solo ever since. At the age of 19, Solo escaped the Luck on the droid-controlled vessel Ylesian Dream in pursuit of his piloting career. |
